RevolutionSF Newsblast: Hiro, Doctor Who, The Strain

RevolutionSF Newsblast has sci-fi news and the only correct opinions thereof. Today's sponsor: Real postage stamps with Tracy from Heroes on them. I could make a reference to licking here, but I shan't, for it belittles my classical background in the legitimate theater.

Hiro from Heroes Makes Movie For The Younguns

Masi Oka, Hiro from Heroes, created The Defenders, a movie about kids who play MMOs together, then meet in real life and have an adventure. Well, that's just filthy. But let's presume it doesn't involve the authorities and crossing state lines.

But he named it The Defenders, and he knows fully well, for he is a nerd, that it does not contain the Marvel superhero group of Dr. Strange, the Hulk, or even Sub-Mariner. I rebuke your re-use of nerdy terms, Masi Oka! Rebuke.

Funeral For Dr. Who Fan in TARDIS coffin

A guy died after "a simple fall at home" and they had a Doctor Who funeral, with TARDIS shaped coffin, and reading from scripts. He apparently looked like David Tennant, and the story says he "exploited it if there was a pretty girl about."

Let's go back to the "simple" fall. I think in my obituary I don't want it to mention how I could have easily avoided my death.

Guillermo del Toro Escapes Fox Alive

Fox the TV network, not the monstrous thumbs of Megan Fox.

Guillermo del Toro said his novel The Strain was a TV show pitch for Fox about vampires combined with The Wire. But Fox said, "Can you turn it into a comedy?"

Oh, Fox! You still got it!


RevolutionSF's Joe Crowe wishes there was also a Peter Petrelli stamp. Wish granted!

Guillermo must've been wearing his garlic- and holy water-soaked undies at that pitch meeting...
